In June, NJ online casinos recorded $271.0 million in revenue. That was the third time in four months that the state had surpassed $270 million in revenue.
While the gap has been closer in recent months, the Atlantic City casinos still fell nearly $14 million behind in revenue compared to the iGaming sector in June.
| Month | Atlantic City Casinos | NJ Online Casinos |
|---|---|---|
| January | $213,318,458 | $258,884,323 |

Through half the year, online casinos in the state now have a $181.8 million lead on Atlantic City.
Yearly Revenue Still Up for Atlantic City
It’s not all bad news for the Atlantic City casinos.
Despite the slight year-over-year dip in June, the commercial casinos are still up for the year through six months by a comfortable margin.
| Month | 2026 Revenue | 2025 Revenue | Percentage Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | $213,318,458 | $210,057,707 | 1.6% |
| February | $202,913,058 | $203,473,581 | -0.3% |
| March | $236,686,515 | $230,892,371 | 2.5% |
| April | $235,578,999 | $210,962,788 | 11.7% |
| May | $265,630,801 | $265,298,666 | 0.1% |
| June | $257,282,919 | $259,016,758 | -0.7% |
| Totals | $1,411,410,750 | $1,379,701,871 | 2.3% |
At the halfway point, Atlantic City has generated $31.7 million more in revenue than it had at this point last year.
One of the big keys for Atlantic City will be how the next two months ago. July and August in 2025 were the most productive for the second by a wide margin. In July, the state had $284.1 million. That was followed by $311.9 million in August.
Should these next two months not be as successful, it could see Atlantic City fall behind the 2025 yearly pace.
